Polar Expeditions

This website aims at covering polar expeditions by publishing an introdution and linking to the official expedition website. Major expeditions are followed-up more closely through regularly published news, pictures galleries and multimedia files.

There are two of them, both beginners in this area, attempting the classic trek between Hercules Inlet and the South Pole (approximately 1100 km). One of them is a banker in London, is 30 years old and is called Adam Wilton. The other works in real estate in Scotland, is 33 and is called Gavin Booth. Assuming all goes well, they intend on covering the distance without being re-supplied.

Last year, Todd Carmichael made an unsuccessful attempt on the trek between Hercules Inlet and the South Pole, accompanied by Jason de Carteret. This time around, although he is tackling the same route, he will be doing it solo and with the help of a little more advertising.
